A & E with my broken wrist 17/02/2014

"A & E with my broken wrist 17/02/2014"

About: Colchester General Hospital

I got to the hospitals A & E department at about 7:30pm on 17/02/2014 and was seen within half hour where I was given pain relief and sent for an X-Ray straight away. Waited 20 mins to go in for X-Ray then on return to where I was seen the doctor looked at the X-Ray said I had broken my wrist and without any delay the same doctor did the plaster cast and I was out of the hospital and on my way home by 9pm which is something that has never happened before as normally I would have been waiting for 4+ hours and all of the staff where fantastic. Thank you very much guys and keep up the good work.
